It's always fun to have a Halloween cocktail! This cocktail has gin, cranberry juice, orange juice and topped with club soda.
Whoa - hope I didn't frighten you! Today I'm sharing this Creepy Crawler Cocktail that might be scary to look at but is a fun drink you can serve for your Halloween party (both with or without alcohol).
Continue on if you dare - don't worry the spiders aren't jumping off the screen!
I normally think of gin as a summer drink - gin and tonics are perfect for a warm summer night. They are so refreshing with a couple simple ingredients and a twist of lime. In fact, with the samples we were given, we made a couple of these at the end of the summer.
Well, now it is fall - Halloween is right around the corner and I decided to use the rest of the samples to create a fun drink!
While this version includes alcohol, you could leave the gin out to make it kid friendly. Because I'm sure they would love spiders in their drink!
Take a sip - I dare you!
